Cafetería Ilse & Danny in La Manga offers a warm, local spot for those who appreciate solid coffee and straightforward, satisfying breakfasts. Located inside Edificio Opalo Uno, it draws a steady mix of locals and visitors, especially in the morning when the café fills with chatter and the aromas of fresh brew and baked treats.

This cafeteria is best known for its quality coffee—from classic café con leche and café cortado to sweeter options like café bombón. The coffee here isn’t just a pick-me-up; it’s part of a relaxed routine for many, whether you're settling in after a morning walk or catching up with friends. The staff’s attentiveness, even when busy, adds to the easygoing vibe.

Breakfast at Ilse & Danny goes beyond just coffee. The menu highlights include comforting dishes like hearty goulash and chicken soup, alongside more typical café fare such as apple tarts and patatas that complement the drinks well. Croissants and tostadas are popular choices, often enjoyed by locals during the early hours.

The atmosphere is casual and unpretentious, with a friendly team that makes space even on busy mornings. Seating is limited but thoughtfully arranged, which encourages a sense of community rather than a rush-through café experience. It’s a spot where local regulars come to linger over coffee or start their day with something hearty.

Visiting in the morning or late morning is ideal, especially if you're interested in grabbing a good breakfast or just soaking in a slice of everyday life in Murcia’s coastal neighborhood. If you’re after somewhere that balances reliable coffee with approachable food and a genuinely local feel, Ilse & Danny is a dependable choice.

Popular café and rightly so. Great for breakfasts (tostadas, croissants). There's a good menu as well which I have yet to explore. Open all year.

We didn't eat here, so I can't comment on the food, we just had coffee and the lady put out an extra table for us as they were so busy, she was very helpful, we often go there for coffee after a walk.

Stopped here for breakfast after arriving late at our Villa the night before. Read reviews and thought it sounded worth the walk. And it was. Had set breakfast of ham, cheese, egg and bread with jams. Also had a coffee. Excellent value for money with really lovely staff. Will be going back.
